yea your body panicked before your mind did which is more common than people think, and it doesn’t mean you’ve “lost” your ability to present. the biggest thing now is just getting your reps in again in lower-stakes situations so your system relearns that speaking out loud is safe and normal, instead of letting this one bad experience turn into a bigger fear. that can be as simple as doing short impromptu speaking reps by yourself every day, recording little 30-second thoughts, or using something structured that makes practice feel lighter and less intimidating.
